You should be albe to find a small touchscreen that will plug in to your laptops monitor out port and a USB port.

You can try to find one here, they are pretty spot on with stuff like that. Just make sure your laptop has a VGA output, and your set.

If you read their forums, you can even learn how to make your laptop boot up XP in 5 seconds, lol, some sort of hibernation hack if I remember right.

And in order to run your audio, you will need to have some sort of auxilary input on your car stereo, or run a 1/8" audio jack to RCA converter directly to your amplifiers.
